Switch to memdup_user() to overwrite the allocated memory only once
instead of initializing the allocated memory to zero with kzalloc() and
then immediately overwriting it with copy_from_user().

Fix the following Coccinelle/coccicheck warning reported by
memdup_user.cocci:

	WARNING opportunity for memdup_user

Thank you for your contribution, it has been applied to my local
review-ilpo branch. Note it will show up in the public
platform-drivers-x86/review-ilpo branch only once I've pushed my
local branch there, which might take a while.

Markus always CC's kernel-janitors even though I have asked him not to.

This -EINVAL check could be made stricter.  Instead of checking for
zero it could check for the limit from amd_pmf_start_policy_engine():

	if (dev->policy_sz < POLICY_COOKIE_OFFSET + sizeof(*header))
		return -EINVAL;

Also this check isn't great:

	if (dev->policy_sz < header->length + 512)

header->length is a u32 that comes from the user, so the addition can
overflow.  I can't immediately see how to exploit this though since we
don't seem to use header->length after this (by itself).

How about

	if (header->length > U32_MAX - 512 || dev->policy_sz < header->length + 512)
		return -EINVAL;

to prevent a possible overflow?

header->length is used in the next line

	dev->policy_sz = header->length + 512;

and if the addition overflows, we end up setting dev->policy_sz to an 
invalid value.

Thanks,
Thorsten

I've been thinking about this and actually we could do something simpler:

	if (dev->policy_sz < size_add(header->length, 512)) {

Yeah, but it's not used by itself.  The "header->length + 512" has been
verified as a valid value whether it overflows or not.  Only
"header->length" is wrong.
